EXECUTIVE COMMENTARY

"We had a good quarter on many measures and continued to make solid progress against our long-term goals," said Bill McCracken, chief executive officer, CA Technologies. "However, we are not done. We remain focused on continuing to execute on our strategy and making further operational enhancements including driving new product sales and increasing sales productivity.

"The $2.5 billion enhanced capital allocation program announced today is the culmination of significant work evaluating ways to optimize our balance sheet, while maintaining the financial flexibility needed to build our business and enhance our competitive positioning," McCracken continued. "We believe we're on a path to achieve a balanced approach to return even more cash to shareholders, while still investing in our future."

REVENUE AND BOOKINGS

The Company received a final license payment in the third quarter of $39 million under a license agreement entered into in connection with a 2009 litigation settlement with a software company. The payment reflects the final amount owed, which was scheduled to be repaid in fiscal years 2013 and 2014. The company made the final payment at its discretion, without any discount or concession by CA Technologies.

During the third quarter, the Company saw demand for its virtualization and service automation products, security solutions including products from Arcot Systems, Interactive TKO (ITKO) products, mainframe solutions and professional services. About 8 percentage points of revenue growth in constant currency and as reported were driven by organic products, while about 2 percentage points in constant currency and as reported came from acquired products. About 63 percent of the Company's revenue came from North America, while 37 percent came from international operations.

Revenue year-over-year:

Total revenue was $1.263 billion, up 10 percent in constant currency and as reported. The single license payment contributed 3 percentage points of revenue growth, all in North America.

Total revenue backlog was $8.084 billion, up 2 percent in constant currency and as reported. The current portion of revenue backlog was $3.576 billion, up 2 percent in constant currency and 1 percent as reported.

North America revenue was $791 million, up 15 percent in constant currency and as reported.

International revenue was $472 million, up 3 percent in constant currency and as reported.

Bookings year-over-year:

Total bookings in the third quarter were $1.284 billion, up 2 percent in constant currency and 1 percent as reported. The single license payment contributed 3 percentage points of growth to bookings, all in North America.

The Company renewed a total of 12 license agreements with incremental contract values in excess of $10 million each, for an aggregate contract value of $452 million. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company renewed a total of 15 license agreements with incremental contract values in excess of $10 million each, for an aggregate contract value of $456 million.

The weighted average duration of subscription and maintenance bookings for the quarter was 3.53 years, compared with 3.20 years for the same period in fiscal year 2011.

North America bookings were $766 million, up 1 percent in constant currency and as reported.

International bookings were $518 million, up 4 percent in constant currency and 2 percent as reported.

EXPENSES AND MARGIN

Year-over-year GAAP results:

Operating expenses, before interest and income taxes, were $850 million, up 5 percent in constant currency and as reported.

Operating income, before interest and income taxes, was $413 million, up 22 percent in constant currency and up 24 percent as reported.

Operating margin was 33 percent, up 4 percentage points from the prior year period.

Year-over-year non-GAAP results, which exclude purchased software and other intangibles amortization, pre-fiscal year 2010 restructuring costs, and certain other gains and losses (including recoveries and certain costs associated with derivative litigation matters and share-based compensation expense), and which include gains and losses on hedges that mature within the quarter, but which exclude gains and
losses on hedges that do not mature within the quarter:

Operating expenses, before interest and income taxes, were $788 million, up 4 percent in constant currency and as reported.

Operating income, before interest and income taxes, was $475 million, up 21 percent in constant currency and 23 percent as reported.

Operating margin was 38 percent, up 4 percentage points from the prior year period.

Both GAAP and non-GAAP operating expense increases were primarily driven by costs associated with acquisitions and expenses resulting from increased Services engagements, and product development and enhancement costs.

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company's effective GAAP tax rate was 34.9 percent, compared with 39.1 percent in the prior year. The Company's effective non-GAAP tax rate was 31.5 percent, compared with 31.7 percent in the prior year.

GAAP and non-GAAP EPS were favorably affected by about $0.05 per share by the single license payment. In addition, GAAP and non-GAAP EPS were positively affected by currency and a reduction in share count. The single license payment also had a positive impact of about 2 percentage points on both GAAP and non-GAAP margin.

The Company's capital allocation program plans to return approximately 80 percent of expected cumulative free cash flow to shareholders through fiscal 2014. This includes a planned increase in the annual dividend from $0.20 to $1.00 per common share and the authorization to repurchase up to $1.5 billion in CA Technologies common stock, including $232 million remaining under the Company's current share repurchase authorization. Approximately $500 million of the planned repurchase is expected to be an accelerated share repurchase pursuant to an agreement executed in the Company's fiscal fourth quarter ending
March 31, 2012. For more information, see separate news release announced today.

OUTLOOK FOR FISCAL YEAR 2012

The Company updated its outlook for fiscal year 2012. The following guidance represents "forward-looking statements" (as defined below). Updated guidance includes the impact of the single license payment, which was not included in previous guidance.

The Company expects the following:

Total revenue growth of 6 percent in constant currency, compared with the previous outlook of 5 percent to 6 percent. At Dec. 31, 2011 exchange rates, this translates to reported revenue of about $4.8 billion.

GAAP diluted earnings per share growth raised to a range of 11 percent to 13 percent in constant currency, compared with the previous outlook of 6 percent to 9 percent. At Dec. 31, 2011 exchange rates, this translates to reported GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.86 to $1.90.

Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share growth raised to a range of 11 percent to 13 percent in constant currency, compared with the previous outlook of 7 percent to 10 percent. At Dec. 31, 2011 exchange rates, this translates to reported non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $2.21 to $2.25.

Cash flow from operations growth continues in a range of 3 percent to 5 percent in constant currency. At Dec. 31, 2011 exchange rates, this translates to reported cash flow from operations of $1.44 billion to $1.47 billion.

The Company expects a full-year GAAP operating margin of 29 percent and non-GAAP operating margin of 34 percent. The Company also expects a full-year GAAP and non-GAAP tax rate in a range of 31 to 32 percent. The Company anticipates 463 million shares outstanding at fiscal year 2012 year-end and weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 486 million
for the fiscal year.

This news release, the accompanying tables and the additional content that is available on the Company's website, including a supplemental financial package, includes certain financial measures that exclude the impact of certain items and therefore have not been calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Non-GAAP metrics for operating expenses, operating income, operating margin, income from operations and diluted earnings per share exclude the following items: non-cash amortization of purchased software and other intangibles, share-based compensation, pre-fiscal year 2010 restructuring and certain other gains and losses, which includes recoveries and certain costs associated with derivative litigation matters and includes the gains and losses since inception of hedges that mature within the quarter, but exclude gains and losses of hedges that
do not mature within the quarter. Prior to fiscal year 2011, non-GAAP income also excludes the interest on convertible bonds. The effective tax rate on GAAP and non-GAAP income from operations is the Company's provision for income taxes expressed as a percentage of pre-tax GAAP and non-GAAP income from operations, respectively. Such tax rates are determined based on an estimated effective full year tax rate, with the effective tax rate for GAAP generally including the impact of discrete items in the period such items arise and the effective tax rate for non-GAAP income generally allocating the impact of discrete items pro rata to the fiscal year's remaining reporting periods. Adjusted cash flow from operations excludes restructuring and other payments. Free cash flow excludes purchases of property, equipment and capitalized software development costs. We present constant currency
information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current and comparative prior period results for entities reporting in currencies other than US dollars are converted into US dollars at the exchange rate in effect on March 31, 2011, which was the last day of our prior fiscal year. Constant currency excludes the impacts from the Company's hedging program. The constant currency calculation for annualized subscription and maintenance bookings is calculated by dividing the subscription and maintenance bookings in constant currency by the weighted average subscription and maintenance duration in years. These non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. By excluding these items, non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management's internal comparisons to the Company's historical operating results and cash flows, to competitors' operating results and cash flows, and to estimates made by securities analysts. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate its performance and they are key variables in determining management incentive compensation. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, the Company has historically reported similar non-GAAP financial measures to its
investors and believes that the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in its financial reporting. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this news release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which are attached to this news release.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

The Company's practice regarding payment of dividends may be modified at any time and from time to time.

Repurchases under the Company's stock repurchase program are expected to be made with cash on hand and may be made from time to time, subject to market conditions and other factors, in the open market, through solicited or unsolicited privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.

The Company assumes no obligation to update the information in this communication, except as otherwise required by law. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.

(1) - Mainframe Solutions — Our Mainframe Solutions segment addresses the mainframe market and is focused on making significant investments in order to be innovative in key management disciplines across our broad portfolio of products. Ongoing development is guided by customer needs,
our cross-enterprise management philosophy and our Mainframe 2.0 strategy, which offers management capabilities designed to appeal to the next generation of mainframe staff while also offering productivity improvements to today's mainframe experts. Our mainframe business assists customers by addressing three major challenges: lowering costs, providing high service levels by sustaining critical workforce skills and increasing agility to help deliver on business goals.

- Enterprise Solutions — Our Enterprise Solutions segment includes products that operate on non-mainframe platforms, such as service assurance, security (identity and access management), project and portfolio management, service management, virtualization and service automation, SaaS, and cloud offerings. Our offerings help customers address their regulatory compliance demands, privacy needs, and internal security policies. Enterprise Solutions also focuses on delivering growth to the Company in the form of new customer acquisitions and revenue, while leveraging non-traditional routes-to-market and delivery models.

- Services — Our Services segment offers implementation, consulting, education and training services to customers, which is intended to promote a seamless customer experience and to increase the value that customers realize from our solutions.

(2) We regularly enter into a single arrangement with a customer that includes Mainframe Solutions segment software products, Enterprise Solutions segment software products and Services. The amount of contract revenue assigned to segments is generally based on the manner in which the proposal is made to the customer. The software product revenue is assigned to the Mainframe Solutions and Enterprise Solutions segments based on either: (1) a list price allocation method (which allocates a discount in the total contract price to the individual
products in proportion to the list price of the product); (2) allocations included within internal contract approval documents; or (3) the value for individual software products as stated in the customer contract. The price for the implementation, consulting, education and training services is separately stated in the contract and these amounts of contract revenue are assigned to the Services segment. The contract value assigned to each segment is then recognized in a manner consistent with the revenue recognition policies we apply to the customer contract for purposes of preparing the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

(3) Segment expenses include costs that are controllable by segment managers (i.e., direct costs) and, in the case of the Mainframe Solutions and Enterprise Solutions segments, an allocation of shared and indirect costs (i.e., allocated costs). Segment-specific direct costs include a portion of selling and marketing costs, licensing and maintenance costs, product development costs, general and administrative costs and amortization of the cost of internally developed software. Allocated segment costs primarily include indirect selling and
marketing costs and general and administrative costs that are not directly attributable to a specific segment. The basis for allocating shared and indirect costs between the Mainframe Solutions and Enterprise Solutions segments is dependent on the nature of the cost being allocated and is either in proportion to segment revenues or in proportion to the related direct cost category. Expenses for the Services segment consist only of direct costs and there are no allocated or indirect costs for the Services segment.

(1) Constant currency information is presented to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current and comparative prior period results for entities reporting in currencies other than US dollars are converted into US dollars at the exchange rate in effect on March 31, 2011, which was the last day of our prior fiscal year. Constant currency excludes the impacts from the Company's hedging program.

(2) Refer to Table 7 for a reconciliation of total expenses before interest and income taxes to total non-GAAP operating expenses.

Prior year results have been adjusted to reflect the discontinued operations associated with the sale of the Information Governance business and the Internet Security business.

(7) Non-GAAP operating margin is calculated by dividing non-GAAP income from continuing operations before interest and income taxes by total revenue (refer to Table 1 for total revenue).

(8) The effective tax rate on GAAP and non-GAAP income from continuing operations is the Company's provision for income taxes expressed as a percentage of GAAP and non-GAAP income from continuing operations before income taxes, respectively. Such tax rates are determined based on an estimated effective full year tax rate after the adjustments for the impacts of certain discrete items (such as changes in tax rates, reconciliations of tax returns to tax provisions and resolutions of tax contingencies).

Refer to the discussion of non-GAAP financial measures included in the accompanying press release for additional information.
